The Challenges You Face

What Landowners Are Up Against

Carriers and tower companies have entire site acquisition departments staffed with specialists who negotiate ground leases all day, every day. They know what your land is worth. Most landowners are doing this once in their lifetime.

The information gap is the problem. Without access to verified current comparable lease rates โ€” what similar properties in your county are actually earning โ€” you have no way to know whether an offer is fair. We have that data, and we use it.

1

First Offers Are Anchored Low

Carriers start negotiations with offers they expect to improve โ€” but only if pushed. Landowners who accept first offers typically earn 40โ€“70% less than negotiated rates.

2

Renewal Offers Are Also Low

At expiration, carriers offer a modest bump above your existing rate. Without data showing true market comparables, most landowners accept. The increases we achieve at renewal average 100โ€“300%.

3

Buyout Pressure Is High-Stakes

Companies like Landmark Dividend send professionally crafted offers with fake urgency. Most initial buyout offers are 30โ€“50% below a lease's true present value.

4

Rent Reduction Letters Look Official

MD7 and similar companies send letters that look like legal notices. They're negotiating tactics. Signing one can permanently reduce your income for the remaining lease term.

Questions from Landowners

National averages range from $500โ€“$3,500/month, but your specific location matters far more than national averages. Rural ground leases in low-density areas typically earn $400โ€“$1,200/month. Ground leases near major highways, dense suburbs, or areas with limited alternative tower sites can earn $1,500โ€“$3,500+. Our free consultation will give you a market-specific benchmark.
First, do not respond with any agreement or acceptance until you've had the offer reviewed. The carrier's site acquisition team has been working this market for years. Get a free review, understand current market rates for your county and carrier, and let us handle the negotiation. The difference between accepting a first offer and letting us negotiate typically ranges from $500 to $2,000+ per month.
Initial cell tower ground leases are typically 5 years with four to five automatic renewal options of 5 years each โ€” giving the carrier up to 25โ€“30 years of occupancy rights. Each renewal is usually at the carrier's option, meaning they can extend without your approval. This makes getting the initial and renewal terms right critically important.
Yes โ€” several scenarios allow mid-lease renegotiation: when the carrier requests to add a co-tenant, when they want to upgrade equipment for 5G, when they propose an early extension, or when they send a rent reduction letter. Each of these creates a negotiation window. Contact us to discuss your specific situation.
